Nothing like a short working week to make Wednesday’s even more special! Tomorrow is my Friday as this week it’s my brother’s 21st birthday. Seen as we’re having a bit of a get together on Friday night I’ve taken Friday off work so I can get involved in all the preparations and properly enjoy the day.
It is however What I Ate Wednesday Time, my favourite party of the week! It just never gets old. It’s a great day for a getting a little recipe inspiration and discovering new blogs.
Yesterday started with a cracking bowl of overnight oats…

Strawberries and raw cacao nibs! Coconut and banana were also in the mix and they were positively delicious!

Strawberries are just incredible at the moment….so of course when hunger it I could think of nothing better than another fix this time in the form of a strawberry and raw cacao coconut smoothie.

Recipe for this beauty will be up tomorrow morning.

Then came lunch. A mock tuna pasta salad. Creamy, sweet, savoury, packed full of colour veggies, carb loaded with a dash of protein.

The perfect lunch if I do say so myself. It was deee…licious!

In between lunch and dinner I snacked on some fruit. A couple of juicy plums and a ginormous crunchy red apple (I’m not sure of the variety).
Dinner was something a little bit different but incredible simple. A spicy eggplant masala served up with some of my seedy spelt bread.

Satisfying comfort food!

And then my evening snack…along with my Lindt, dried fruit and grapes I had one of my raw Vanilla Sunwarrior Protein energy balls…these things are addictive!!!

I’m between the Vanilla Sunwarrior Energy Balls and the Mock Tuna Pasta Salad as the best food discoveries of the day…both will be repeated ![]()

What’s your favourite recent food discovery?
